* In "Manna From Heaven", Darden finally loses it in the courtroom over the Dream Team's shenanigans and is reprimanded by Judge Ito. Marcia decides to stand up for him and Darden gives a gesture that lets her know he appreciates it. Darden he apologizes to Ito for his outburst and Ito accepts the apology.
* A meta case: In the finale, there's a moment after the verdict is read where a shell-shocked Robert Kardashian and a worn down Marcia Clark exchange a brief, shared look of disbelief from across a room. [[http://www.vulture.com/2016/04/marcia-clark-people-v-oj-simpson-final-verdict.html In a post-show interview]], the real Marcia Clark reveals how much she appreciated this scene, given how much it reflected the real Kardashian's views and strengths as a person.
-->'''Interviewer''': Do you remember having any kind of moment with Robert Kardashian, like the one shown in the episode?
-->'''Marcia Clark''': You know, I'm glad they showed that. This is where I'd say that the series is so good. It delivers an essential truth, because they don't have time to deliver on the exact way it went down. But, essentially, it is correct. Robert Kardashian looked devastated when he heard the verdict. He knew. And he had always been very nice. He was a really good guy. I ran into him a few times at restaurants. We'd nod at each other across the room. And then the last time I saw him, he actually came over to my table and said, “Hey Marcia, how ya doing?” Very nice. I said, “Hi, Bob. How ya doing?” “I'm okay.” It turned out he wasn't okay. Two weeks later, he passed away. So he was very ill, and I guess he knew it at the time.
-->'''Interviewer''': But he never said anything directly about the case?
-->'''Marcia Clark''': No, he didn't have to. I could see it on his face. There was no need for words, just like in the series. That's what I mean. They're right.

** Surely Clark found the moment sweet - after all, she was loathed by both Simpson's supporters and opponents (who blamed the loss of the trial on her incompetence) and one-dimensionally presented as a stereotypical nagging lady by the media. Paulson's sympathetic, complex portrayal of Clark is the culmination of a very slow turn-around in public perception.
* In RealLife, Selma Blair (who portrayed Kris Jenner then Kardashian) in the series was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis after the season had ended, with the real-life Kris [[https://www.allure.com/story/kris-jenner-selma-blair-flowers-multiple-sclerosis mailing her an extravagant and beautiful bouquet of roses]] as a show of support; Blair even said that Kris even collaborated with her during the development on the show to help her better understand her role, despite any misgivings she may have.

* Cochran, in his twisted way, tries to comfort Darden about losing the case. It's as if he can sense that Darden is going to resign from the system, and doesn't want that to happen.
